Crist book tour rolls through Fla

@AdamSmithTimes

Today's the fifth anniversary of the notorious Charlie Crist-Barack Obaman man hug, which took place in Fort Myers as the president was pitching the economic stimulus plan and Gov. Crist was cheering him on and helping seal his fate as Tea Party road kill in 2010.

So naturally, Fort Myers is where Crist kicks off the Florida leg of his book tour today with a 7 p.m. appearance at Books-A-Million.

Meanwhile Florida GOP Chairman Lenny Curry gets an op-ed column published in the News-Press (When did Florida newspapers start publishing predictable partisan attack columns by party chairs? Seems like that started with Rick Scott. Am I wrong?):

..."Floridians are smarter than Charlie Crist and his buddy President Obama give them credit for. When Crist hugged the president in Fort Myers five years ago, they could see what was coming. Even as President Obama continues the PR campaign to sell Obamacare, they know a bad law when they see it. And as Charlie Crist rewrites history in his new book, spins the truth about his failures as governor, and proudly stands by the president's devastating, job-killing health care law, Floridians know a political chameleon when they see one."
